title: Acute kidney injury following HCT: incidence, risk factors and outcome.
abstract: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common complication in haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) patients and it adversely affects outcome. Herein, we provide a comprehensive and contemporary discussion of the incidence, risk factors and outcome of AKI in patients undergoing HCT, focusing on the differences between the myeloablative and nonmyeloablative regimens.
